## Description
This PR includes the following improvements:
* **Popular Articles Locale Selection based on Widget Locale**
* Implements priority-based locale matching:
* Exact locale match (e.g., "fr" === "fr")
* Base language match (e.g., "fr" when selected is "fr_CA")
* Variant match (e.g., "fr_BE" when selected is "fr")
* Removes default locale fallback - if no locale match is found, popular
articles section is hidden.
* Fixed **API** filter issue where the locale parameter was previously
ignored
* Hides Popular Articles section completely when no locale match is
found and Only shows relevant articles in the user's language
* **RTL Direction Handling Improvements**
* Now directly reads the `lang` attribute from HTML element `<html
lang="en">` instead of relying on `.locale-switcher` and sets direction
attribute based on language.
* Adds `data-dir-applied` attribute to prevent overlapping direction
settings between global helpers and components (eg case: Insert article
in editor dashboard)
* Update `IframeLoader.vue` to Composition API and improve the **dir**
logic

The UI displays only six articles, and this update introduces a per_page
parameter to control the number of articles returned per API call. The
value is capped between 1 and 100, with a default fallback if a lower
number is set.
This change is necessary due to high website traffic, where excessive
payloads are returned without adding value.
**Changes:**
- Add index to status, account_id, portal_id, views.
- Add per_page param in the API.
- Update the code in the frontend to fetch only 6
We allow users to select locale variants when creating the help center
(e.g., pt_BR or en_UK). However, the selected variant may not always be
available for translation in the app. In such cases, we need to fall
back to either the base language or the default locale.
While this fallback logic was implemented for the portal locale, it was
missing for article locales.
This PR fixes that issue.

This PR imports all the work related to Captain into the EE codebase. Captain represents the AI-based features in Chatwoot and includes the following key components:
- Assistant: An assistant has a persona, the product it would be trained on. At the moment, the data at which it is trained is from websites. Future integrations on Notion documents, PDF etc. This PR enables connecting an assistant to an inbox. The assistant would run the conversation every time before transferring it to an agent.
- Copilot for Agents: When an agent is supporting a customer, we will be able to offer additional help to lookup some data or fetch information from integrations etc via copilot.
- Conversation FAQ generator: When a conversation is resolved, the Captain integration would identify questions which were not in the knowledge base.
- CRM memory: Learns from the conversations and identifies important information about the contact.
